One thing I’m starting to see more and more is that software is no longer as big of a moat as it once was. Netflix gets to cruise along with a tech like evaluation because it pioneered online video streaming software. They caught the incumbents off guard and now the incumbents are starting to chip away at their tech moat.
I think we’re going to start seeing this happen more broadly across the industry. AI will get to a point where it becomes easy to clone any app or service. At that point software is no longer your moat. Your moat is going to be content, community and branding. This kind of makes me wonder if open source get even more popular. If software is no longer a moat, then you may as well release it for free and cash in on the goodwill and community.

It’s easy to forget now that Netflix Original used to be a marker of quality. Losing Holland was an unforced error.
